We examined the effect of age, tampon use duration, contraceptive method, and sexual intercourse in the 5 days prior to sampling on the composition of the vaginal cultivable microbiota by BCA.
The vaginal bacterial community in apparently healthy reproductive age women has been shown to present a strong barrier against various infectionsThe aim of the present study was to determine whether the composition of microbial communities that colonised tampon during menstruation is associated to the vaginal carriage of mTSS is more prevalent in young women.
A total of 51 genera and 96 different species were identified. Staphylococcus aureus is a Gram-positive, coagulase-positive, catalase-positive, non-motile coccus found in the genus Staphylococcus and family Staphylococcaceae. The number of genera per tampon varied from 50 to 128 (median 72). Staphylococcus aureas bacteria can live on a person's skin or in the nose, causing problems only when they get inside the body.
Staphylococcal infection can affect the:There are millions of skin staph infections in the United States every year. A.
The only inclusion criterion was the use of tampon during menses, regardless of brand. The cultivable microbiota composition of 82 tampons is shown in the Additional file 1: Fig. Symptoms of staph infection on the skin include:When a staph infection occurs in areas of the body other than the skin, symptoms include:Staph infection spread in a variety of ways, including:Last reviewed by a Cleveland Clinic medical professional on 09/17/2019. The proportions of bacterial species found in vaginal microbiota isolated from the different tampons are shown in the Additional file 1: Fig. You can also search for this author in Sign up for the Get the most important science stories of the day, free in your inbox.

Co-inertia analysis and the linking of ecological data tables.

The number of cultivable bacterial genera colonizing tampons varied from 2 to 11 (median 6), and the number of cultivable bacterial species colonizing tampons varied from 2 to 15 (median 8). Previous in vitro and in vivo animal studies showed that O(2) and CO(2) concentrations can affect virulence of pathogenic bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus.
